That's what I said last Nov, it's the 3rd year of a lame duck President, nothing is keeping up with inflation, and there's nowhere else to put money, Real Estate is a mess, and now, Bonds are a mess. The market can only go in one direction.

That is total and complete fiction. Look at the numbers of the retail brokers (ETFC, SCHW, AMTD etc.) and it becomes obvious that over the last couple months the their trading volumes have been stagnant. Joe Average does not buy into this bull market and is unwilling to participate.

OK, I'm confused. Is it 1995 or 1998 or whenthefuck? C'mon, a little help here!

Don't worry what the market will do, worry about what YOU will do in response to the market.

Even by a simple moving average (can even be done by a stupidiot ) you can stay in the market and limit the damage if the market would crash.
Another option is to get out of the market, and miss the crash.... or miss another 25% up move.

Nobody knows what the future will bring, so be prepared for any move, up or down.

I do not live in the US what you guys are not factoring in is that foreigners will buy your market as the Dollar weakens.

believe me its a frenzy in the east, everyman and his dog has a stock account and with direct access, it no longer matters whether Americans are buying, if a bunch of yahoo's in Asia are buying.

The US markets will make new highs. Remember those who bought in 2000 are only seeing their money back now.

It will over heat and in the end will pull back to the 7% average return. In the meanwhile be nifty, protect your capital, don't bother trying to catch the big move down, you won't.
Also don't bother trying to catch the big move up, because you will catch the big move down.

Just remember the market is in a big big up trend.

And trade long/short whatever your plan tells you too.
